Threads

🖼️ Tool name: Threads

🔖 Tool Category:
A text-based social media platform (microblogging) linked to Instagram

✏️ What does it do?
Threads allows users to post text updates, share photos, videos (up to 5 minutes), links, and join public or private discussions in threads. Texts of up to 500 characters can be posted.
The platform is fully integrated with Instagram, using the same account and personal data, making it easy to sign up and post. It provides tools to control privacy, such as making the account public or private, and deciding who can reply to posts.

⭐ What does the tool actually offer based on user experience?
It offers a similar user experience to Twitter, but is designed with Instagram in mind, making it more intuitive and familiar to Instagram users.
The platform offers two main sections for feeds:
- "Following": Shows only content from accounts you follow
- For You: Shows suggested posts based on your interests and engagement.
The platform is ad-free in most countries, but has been gradually being piloted in some regions since the beginning of 2025.

🤖 Does the tool have automation?
The platform does not provide internal automation tools such as bots or automatic content generation, but it relies on an automatic mechanism to update feeds according to user preferences.
Posts are displayed synchronously and instantly from the site or app without manual intervention.
